W202 Avantgarde Grille With Mercedes Logo

[Dieselman]

matrixcar / powerstyling stuff is normally Ok. Not perfect but good.
Make sure he packs it well as the grille slats can break in transit.

Thanks guys also, hows fitting, pretty straighty forward? im guessing the old one just clips out without having to remove the chrome frame that it's in?

I've got one on my W202 that I want to sell and get the avantgarde grille instead.

How much are you looking for it? What kind of condition and age is it?

You need to unscrew the frame and then unscrew the insert from it.

KillerHERTZ did a superb HOWTO but unfortunately the pictures are not showing anymore. Should be able to get the general idea though.

HOWTO

Used the same instructions when I fitted mine

 

[KillerHERTZ]

I bought the same from the same seller when I had my 202. Quality is fine

Ditto, The company is called MatrixCar - on eBay its down as powerstyling though.

I bought the Avantgarde version about 2 months ago, It was about £45 all in, excellent quality :bannana:


As for the HOWTO: I still have the pictures on my PC, I will have to re-upload them

It is about a year and a half old. You have a PM about the price. :bannana:

 

[Kompressor_Dude]

I'll take second dibs on that if you're not interested Crispy

Here is a picture of the grille for those interested.

And before those who will slate it, the grille like all modifications is a personal choice

I'll have to say that looks OK. I've seen a few versions that look poo. Still prefer the Avantgarde though if I had the choice

 

[Dieselman]

Your picture is a bit too "actual size"...I thought I was being run over.

Can you post a picture from further away to give an overall effect as opposed to close detail?

Also, is the star not straight?
